... section. Road bulges was discovered 2~2.6 m from L-type barrier and height of bulges was about 30 cm (Fig. 2). A variety of multi tension cracks and local failure were progressing at the investigated cut slope. In particular, tension crack and bulging phenomenon was very cleare at the top part...

... ABSTRACT: The significance of tension cracks for the stability of slopes has been widely recognized. Prior studies are based on the Plane Failure model for the analytical solution of rock slopes in which the upper slope surface and the tension crack are inclined. In the present paper...

... and secondary cracks are observed in both monotonic and cyclic tests. Wing cracks, which are tension cracks, initiate at (or near) the tips of the flaws and propagate parallel to the compressive loading axis. Secondary cracks always appear after wing crack initiation and lead to final failure. Secondary cracks...

... cliff form "tension cracks" at the back of the cliff, but their distance from the face is uncertain. Yet, the nature of deformation depends upon the exact location of the vertical tensile crack. The stability of the cliff under different geometrical configurations was studied using continuous 2-D FEA...

A second zone forms near the previously formed tension fractures. These fractures will grow in sliding along the crack surfaces and form second...
